1947 Chrysler New Yorker- 4 Suicide door Sedan -Odometer: 77000: Automatic transmission title : Clean car unrestored. All complete. This car is a very presentable driver quality car. Tuxedo Black, Blue interior and is in very satisfactory condition, including the chrome and bright work. Interior is clean and very attractive considering that it is original: This car had been stored for awhile and was stored properly to avoid weatherization and it's safety: Runs and drives nice. Underneath has been undercoated to avoid rust. After the war, the New Yorker became a separate series. Unlike most car companies, Chrysler did not make major changes with each model year from 1946 through 1948. Thus models for 1946 through 1948 Chryslers have the same basic appearance, noted for their 'harmonica' grille, based on the body introduced with the 1941 models. 1947 saw a minor redesign in tires, trim, and instrument panel. 323.5 cu in (5.3 L) Spitfire I8 Original Base Price$1,963.00 No. Produced52,036 Body Body MakerChrysler No. Doors4 Passengers6 Model Number Weight3,987lbs Dimension Wheelbase127.5 inches Length214.25 inches Width77.75 inches Height Front Tread57 13/16 inches Rear Tread61 9/16 inches Engine TypeOwn Straight 8 L-head Displacement323.5 cu. in.

It always attracts a crowd and the suicide doors are very functional. Radio, wipers, etc all work. Tires are Cokers. A bit old but under 250 miles on them and still are very nice whitewalls.
